Computing at Great Linford Primary School

At Great Linford Primary School, we take computing and digital literacy very seriously as part of your child's learning. Digital skills are already essential to a large variety of jobs and further education; we want to set your child up for success.

What we're teaching

Online safety

Programming

Animation

...and much more!

​As well as the computing curriculum itself, we also try to incorporate the use of technology into other subjects through the use of our iPads and Chromebooks.

Investing in knowledge and equipment

This Year, Great Linford have a subscription to Purple Mash which is a an award winning website for nursery and primary school children.

It is a platform full of different ways for children to express their creativity across the curriculum.As well as using it in school, your child can access Purple Mash from home on a laptop, desktop or a tablet to extend their learning at home. Your child will have login details and a password. These should remain confidential and allow you and your child unique access.

Great Linford have also just invested in a brand new class set of Chromebooks to ensure your child has the ability to learn fully in the classroom.

We have also created a group of digital leaders to bring together peer experts on technology in the school. We meet to discuss latest projects and share ideas, lead assemblies, organise competitions and visit classes to support our friends and classmates. Read more about our Digital Leaders
